CHUTE ASSEMBLY
Rotate the discharge chute to the left or right using the control handle.
The pitch of the discharge chute controls the angle at which the snow
is thrown. Loosen the wing knob on the side of the discharge chute
before pivoting the discharge chute upward or downward. Retighten
the knob once the desired position has been achieved.
SHAVE PLATE
The shave plate maintains contact with the pavement as the snow
thrower is propelled, allowing snow close to the pavement's surface to
be discharged.
OIL FILL/DIPSTICK
Engine oil level can be checked and oil added through the oil fill.
OIL DRAIN
Engine oil can be drained through the oil drain.
BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINE
WARNING
Read, understand and follow all the instructions and warnings on the
machine and in this manual before operating.
STARTING THE ENGINE
WARNING
Always keep hands and feet clear of moving parts. Do not use a
pressurized starting fluid. Vapors are flammable.
WARNING
To avoid carbon monoxide poisoning, make sure the engine is
outdoors in a well-ventilated area.
1.
Make certain the auger control is in the disengaged (released)
position.
2.
Insert ignition key into slot. Make sure it snaps into place. Do not
attempt to turn the key. See Figure 9.
NOTE: The engine cannot start unless the key is fully inserted into the
ignition switch.
OPERATION
Figure 9
3.
Push the choke lever to the CHOKE
4.
If the engine is warm, place the choke in the RUN
instead of CHOKE
5.
Push the primer five to seven (5-7) times, making sure to cover
the vent hole when pushing.
6.
If the engine is warm, push the primer only once.
7.
Grasp the recoil starter handle and slowly pull the rope out. At
the point where it becomes slightly harder to pull the rope, slowly
allow the rope to recoil.
8.
Pull the starter handle with a firm, rapid stroke. Do not release
the handle and allow it to snap back. Keep a firm hold on the
starter handle and allow it to slowly recoil.
9.
Allow the engine to warm up several minutes, adjusting choke
toward RUN
position. Wait until engine runs smoothly before
each choke adjustment.
STOPPING THE ENGINE
1.
Run the engine for a few minutes without engaging the auger
before stopping to help dry off any moisture on the engine.
2.
To stop the engine remove the key and store it in a safe place.
3.
Wipe all the snow and moisture away from the engine controls
area.
Muffler, engine and surrounding areas become hot and can cause a
burn. Be careful and do not touch when they are hot.
ENGAGING THE AUGER
Engage the auger by squeezing the auger control against the upper
handle. Release the control to stop the auger.
ENGAGING THE DRIVE
Lift up slightly on the upper handle to allow the rubber paddles on the
auger to contact the pavement and propel the snow thrower forward.
Pushing downward on the handle will raise the auger off the ground
and stop the forward motion.
NOTE: Excessive upward pressure on the handle will result in
premature wear to the rubber auger paddles, which will not be covered
by the warranty.
CLEARING A CLOGGED DISCHARGE CHUTE
Hand contact with the rotating impeller inside the discharge chute
is the most common cause of injury associated with snow throwers.
Never use your hand to clean out the discharge chute.
To clear the chute:
1.
SHUT THE ENGINE OFF!
2.
Wait 10 seconds to be sure the impeller blades have stopped
rotating.
3.
Always use a clean-out tool or stick, not your hands.
